Glenfiddich 21 Year Gran Reserva
$369.99
Remember way back when this was finished in Cuban Rum casks... the Havana Reserve... "Resurrecting the lost tradition of maturing in rum casks, Cuban rum was decanted at the Glenfiddich distillery and replaced with 21 yr old whisky. The distillery settles for "Caribbean Rum casks" these days... maybe some of them are from Cuba! 40% ABV.
Producer Description
"We use casks that once contained premium Caribbean rum to finish our 21 Year Old expression. It’s the details that matter. This expression spends four months finishing in Gran Reserva barrels selected by our Malt Master, adding to its distinctive and complex flavour."

$249.99
Today, Croft is a part of the Fladgate Partnership, three of the most historic and highly regarded Porto houses, including Taylor Fladgate, Fonseca and Croft—a family-owned company that sets the standard to which other Port houses aspire.
Bright, saturated ruby. Brooding aromas of bitter cherry, violet and licorice, lifted by a resiny nuance. Then densely packed, concentrated and fresh, with rich, fleshy flavors of kirsch and dark chocolate. Finishes with big, broad, thoroughly ripe tannins and very good lingering black cherry fruit. This is surprisingly easy to taste today but should age well on its ripe tannins and sheer balance.
Score: 90 points -- Stephen Tanzer, Vinous, 2006

Fernet Hunter Yotei
$69.99
From the hunter lab
Fernet Hunter Yōtei is a limited edition of the original Fernet Hunter and a fresh take on a classic Italian bitter. Mount Yōtei is an inactive volcano located in Hokkaido, Japan - an area known for its incredibly unique, vibrant, and fragrant lavender that blooms during the summer season. Fernet Hunter Yōtei is a celebration of this lavender and the raw natural landscape of Hokkaido from which it grows. With only 1000 bottles produced, what separates Fernet Hunter Yōtei from the rest of the Fernet Hunter family is the inclusion of Yōtei lavender, which is combined with Arnica and Orrisroot to produce a true bitter with a distinct aromatic character and complexity - best enjoyed chilled with soda, tea, or in cocktails
Sylvain Martel Julienas
$54.99
Sylvain Martel completed his winemaking training in the Southern Rhone and spent ten years running a small organic estate in the Ardeche. He relocated to Beaujolais, after the Graillot family of Crozes-Hermitage brought him on board to help establish and manage Domaine de Fa. As fate would have it, Sylvain met Anne-Sophie Dubois (we carry her wines as well) in 2016 and settled down in Fleurie. By 2018 he was ready to start his own project and purchased a 1.3ha plot of 45 year old Gamay vines on a dramatic steep slope at 450m altitude in the lieu-dit of Bessay in the western part of Julienas. A terroir of blue stones, the tree-lined vineyard is planted to a high density, cultivation is organic and the yields are kept low (25hl/ha).
